Abstract :
We present here a method to use remote sensing and GIS to help the task of area reduction in mine action. The goal is to synthesize all relevant information in thematic maps, called danger maps, that can be used as basis for area reduction. The information presented in the maps can be extracted from the remote sensing data, coming from the mine action centre mine information system (MIS) or be added after discussion with experts. The blind tests performed on mine-suspected areas in Croatia have shown that the method had a reduction rate of 26% and an error rate of 0.1%.
